The Color Hues challenge is asking for either blue and yellow (in support of Ukraine) or green and gold. Today I'm posting a card in green and gold, but I'll be back with a blue and yellow in the next day or two.
I created a whole sheet of stamping using this video: Split 4 Stamping Technique by Creative Treehouse.
I layered two swirly stamps, one holly, one stars, over each other. I then cut the panel into four equally sized pieces. But rather than using the four pieces to make four cards like in the video, I trimmed down one of the pieces to make the above card.
I die cut two pieces with square openings, one out of a white piece that has the sentiment stamped on it and is die cut into a rectangle with a stitched die, and the other out of gold shimmer cs that has a smaller square opening. I layered the white and gold squares over my stamping, added it all to the card base, and embellished with a few tiny gold die cut stars to add extra interest.
I then used another piece to make one of the tags in this photo:
I still have two pieces left to either make into full cards like Robin does in her video or to use in some other way.
Supplies:
Stamps - Penny Black Winter Bough and sentiment, unknown star swirl stamp
Ink - Distress Pine Needles, Delicata Golden Glitz
Paper - gold shimmer and white cs
Size - A2
Accessories - Spellbinders square dies, Lil Inker stitched rectangle die, tiny star die
I love that you created a Christmas card using the colors. Those swirls are so fun. Thank you for joining us at Color Hues!
